Yesterday morning, FOX talk show host and radio personality Wendy Williams announced that she is taking three weeks hiatus for treatment of Graves’ Disease linked to an overactive thyroid.
Williams explained her struggles on her daily talk show yesterday morning. She says her newly-diagnosed condition is the reason her “eyeballs pop out”. The disease causes the back of the eyes to stick out, formerly known as exophthalmos. Double vision and vision loss are common symptoms linked to the disease that primarily affects women over 40. It also causes weight loss resulting from an overactive thyroid.

Upon her diagnosis, Williams’ doctors altered her medication regiment and three weeks to recuperate and get her back to health. Being her hilarious self, she said she would take off two weeks to see her co-hosts, her studio audience and do what she does best!
Godspeed to you Wendy and best of luck during your recovery. You will be missed and we cannot wait to see you in action again soon.
